Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some tracks can have several thousand ratings)

Agree with deusexmackia , utterly haunting and one of her very best songs. written, produced and performed impeccably.

One of Bush's most haunting works. Of all the ways to go about an anti-war song, this is stark. Something about the uncertainty in those piano chords that really hits the mark; the overall acuteness of the soundscape and her jarring words just oozes creepiness and dystopia.
